I just updated my AO3 profile. I stated how comfortable I am with 1) works based on what I've created and 2) constructive criticism in the comments. I think other people should do the same. Please boost.#fanfic#ao3#fandomculture

So, I haven't been on Dreamwidth lately, and it's largely due to the fact that my laptop doesn't work. That, and I feel like taking a break from writing fanfiction. I signed up for too many things last November and December.

Anyway, one way that I can contribute to comms (not being super interested in writing meta or headcanons or whatever) is making fanfic recommendations! I just put a bare bones explicit (18+) #Venom#fanfic rec list up on the symbrock DW comm: https://symbrock.dreamwidth.org/8647.html

(And then I crossposted it to my site! And tomorrow I will link to it on my DW journal! Yay!)

apropos of nothing, and without any additional commentary, a month ago a friend asked me what distinguished fanfic from original fiction and why somebody might prefer one over the other, and this was my response [1/2]

I just wanna encourage people, if they can, to recontextualize envy as that pain of being left out or wanting something badly, because I think envy protects us from that pain by turning it outward. But it also comes between us as artists, and we need one another.

"We (me and my legal team) never heard anything from her husband during her lawsuit against me, and I didn’t even know his first name until this current lawsuit news. The current lawsuit alleges that he sent me several cease-and-desist letters. That did not happen. I have never met him or heard from him, just as I have never met or ever spoke to Sherrilyn Kenyon in my life, even during the lawsuit."
